Are you looking to further your career with a company driven by a vision for a world in which people with disabilities are able to realise their potential as equal and active citizens in control of their lives?
National Star is recruiting extra special people to join its committed team of care and support workers helping young people with complex disabilities to live life as independently as possible. We currently prefer applicants with previous care experience and a positive attitude toward the aspirations of young people with disabilities and are able to commit to a minimum of 30 hours a week working shift patterns to include earlies (staring at 7 am) and lates (finishing at 10pm) and alternate weekends.
As one of our care and support workers you will be a key member of our team, providing personalised care to enable residents to enjoy their hobbies and interests and realise their aspirations. The long-term residents that we support have a wide range of learning and physical disabilities and previous experience of working in this environment would be hugely beneficial to help us provide the support they need in their every day lives.
We offer opportunities to complete fully-funded level 2 and level 3 qualifications in adult social care, learning support and team leader (supervisor) should you wish to.
We would encourage you to apply early for these roles as we are currently holding interviews and will withdraw the vacancy if suitable appointments are made.
(Please note that unfortunately we are unable to provide sponsorship currently or consider applicants holding skilled worker / temporary student / graduate visas or dependants thereof)
Contract Type: Permanent | Contract: Full time / part time | Salary: £13 per hour weekdays / £16.24 weekends | Location Status: On Site (Hereford) | Interview Date: Interviews will be held during the course of the advertisement - please apply early as the vacancy may close if appointments are made. | Closing Date: 18/10/2026
Mission Statement:
To enable people with disabilities to realise their potential through personalised learning, transition & lifestyle services.
National Star is a charity working with people with severe disabilities and acquired brain injuries. All have complex physical learning disabilities and face many challenges.
But with our support they access opportunities which improve their life chances and enhance their quality of life. We give them the skills they need to lead independent lives.
We focus on what they can do rather than what they can't do, and with your support we can make a huge difference to their lives.
